lyrics

Here we are, here we wait.
A Stranger passes by us and we notice we are late.
A man in black tips his hat.
He smiles and slowly turns away, and leaves us sitting there . . .

All alone as the rain has begun
There as we wait for the sun

I was speaking, you never heard a word.
I watch you watch your red umbrella falling to the ground.
One by one, the buses come over from another place,
They're weaving in and weaving out.

Here as the rain has begun.
Here as we watch for the sun.
Here with the rain pouring down.
Here with our head in the clouds.

One more call for Sol to take the morning away.
One more time for Sol to call the clouds all away, for the day.

Here we are here we wait.
Someone stops to say hello and then they’re on their way.
The man in black is stepping back.
He looks as if he wishes he were home, to watch the world through windows.

Here as the rain has begun.
Here as we watch for the sun.
Here with the rain pouring down.
Here with our head in the clouds.
